A SOUL
by Colin Moffett © 2006

There is another flower that will blossom
In God’s beautiful garden above
Another jewel to adorn His golden crown
For a soul has been overcome by His love

It has been kissed with mercy by the Saviour
Drawn so gently by His infinite grace
Into His tender arms of sweet comfort
Held closely in their everlasting embrace

There is rejoicing in the highest of the heavens
Angels sing and play with delight
The golden harps sound the notes of sweet music
For a soul has passed from darkness to light

Join with God’s bright angels in the glory
Sing; you redeemed ones on the earth
Mingle your words with the heavenly chorus
For a precious soul has been given new birth

It is like the wings of a butterfly unfolding
From the prison of a chrysalis set free
A soul unloosed from the bondage of sin
When it obeyed the Master’s bidding; come unto me

Feel the great weight from a soul that is lifted
See the links of a strong chain that lie broken
The fetters that bound it so tightly
Are unloosed; because Jesus in power He has spoken

Can there ever be an end to rejoicing
A halt to thankfulness for a sinner made whole
Will eternity ever be long enough?
To praise Jesus for saving each repentant soul
